Alpha Anthology *Capcom for the motherfucking WIN*

Lik-Sang, Play-Asia, although those are in Japan I believe.

Actually those online shops are both based in Hong Kong, they only import from Japan.

Most likely.

I’m surprised that people haven’t learned that magazine reviews = JACKSHIT.

Whenever I’m up to buy a game, I’ll check out my usual message board websites - more than likely, someone that has nearly the same interests as I do gamewise has picked it up and tried it. You’ll get more honesty out of us that some tool with a pre-production copy.

Ah yes, that’s it.

By the way you have a nice peach.

Play-Asia is great. I haven’t had any issues with them, and they always deliver on time.

Amen…the fucking truth.

I never trust magazine reviews…especially not about fighting games…certainly not 2d ones…all these fools are spoiled by Halo 3 and DOA4 and stuff so they wont know the true essence of how these games got their roots…

re: reviews

At least one reviewer I know (Racewing from Hardcore Gamer Mag) who is a big fan of SF/2D fighters was burned by a pre-release version that apparently didn’t have all the extra hidden content.

But yeah: Most reviewers don’t know jack shit about fighters, particularly 2D ones.

True shit I could not have said it better myself.

Strategy Guide

does anyone know the deal on the US strategy guide for the game?

i loved the street fighter anniversary collection guide
does anyone know if it’s the same team, or if it will be similar?

It’s being done by bradygames the same company that did the anniversary collection guide but their site has no info on it.

I didn’t test it w/all the supers but for some reasons if you eat a level 3 bfbf+k from Chun a2, you quick roll out.

Chun in 3s has a bf+p (looks like the b+fp) that knocks down and allows you to juggle; but has ridiculous timing or sheer luck.

Full screen raging demon :0

Ok.

Now let’s say I don’t give a damn for any of the special ‘isms’, ‘arrange mode’, or extra characters. I want to play the direct ARCADE PORT of Alpha 2 and Alpha 3, WHAT DO I DO SO I CAN PLAY THEM?

:stuck_out_tongue:

You choose Alpha 3 (or A2 or A2…whatever) without holding select while doing so. :slight_smile:

:looney:

Don’t make me ban you, TROLL >=O

lol

Yeah, some supers do this automatically… Ryu’s Hurricane Kick super does it also, I think (not sure which game, though.

I wanted to make sure! You guys are going off on dipswitches and funny buttons and all that so I was confused.

KANEDA, YOU WILL DO NO SUCH THING >=X

Any word about the dip switches deal? what options make what?
how many possible combinations can the dip switch star thing make?
